Very low dropout voltage/quiescent current voltage regulator
6.2 Pin description
[1] All GND pins are connected to the lead frame and can also be used to reduce the total thermal resistance
Rth(j-a) by soldering these pins to a ground plane. The ground plane on the top side of the printed-circuit
board acts like a heat spreader.
7. Functional description
The TDA3661 is an adjustable voltage regulator with an output voltage that can be fixed
by means of an external resistor divider. The regulator can deliver output currents up to
100 mA. The regulator is available in an SO8 package. The regulator is intended for
portable, mains and telephone applications. To increase the lifetime of batteries, a
specially built-in clamp circuit keeps the quiescent current of this regulator very low, in
dropout and full load conditions.
The device remains operational down to very low supply voltages (typical 2 V) and below
this voltage it switches off. A temperature protection is included which switches off the
regulator output at a junction temperature above 150 °C.

Philips Semiconductors TDA3661
Very low dropout voltage/quiescent current voltage regulator
11.2 Stability
The regulator is stabilized with an external capacitor connected to the output.
For stable operation:
1. The output capacitor ESR should not exceed 22 (worst case)
2. A maximum ESR may be required; see Table 8
3. It is recommended not to use below 1 mA output current because of reduced phase
margin
4. Use electrolytic capacitors for output capacitor values of 1 µF and above.
11.3 Application circuits
The maximum output current of the regulator equals:
When Tamb =21°C, VP=14VandV
REG = 5 V (k = 4.01929) the maximum output current
equals 140 mA.
For successful operation of the IC (maximum output current capability) special attention
has to be given to the copper area required as heatsink (connected to all GND pins), the
thermal capacity of the heatsink and its ability to transfer heat to the external environment.
It is possible to reduce the total thermal resistance from 155 K/W to 50 K/W.
11.3.1 Application circuit with backup function
Sometimes, a backup function is needed to supply, for example, a microcontroller for a
short period of time when the supply voltage spikes to 0 V (or even 1 V).
This function can easily be built with the TDA3661 by using an output capacitor with a
large value. When the supply voltage is 0 V (or 1 V), only a small current will flow into
pin REG from this output capacitor (a few µA).
The application circuit is given in Figure 3.

11.3.2 Application circuit with enable function
An enable function can easily be built with the TDA3661 by connecting a diode to pin ADJ.
When the voltage on pin ADJ is forced above 1.3 V, the output will switch off. The standby
current is equal to the quiescent current of the TDA3661.
The application circuit is given in Figure 4.

Philips Semiconductors TDA3661
Very low dropout voltage/quiescent current voltage regulator
14. Soldering
14.1 Introduction to soldering surface mount packages
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology. A more in-depth account of
soldering ICs can be found in our
Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface mount IC packages. Wave
soldering can still be used for certain surface mount ICs, but it is not suitable for fine pitch
SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is recommended.
14.2 Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of fine solder particles, flux and
binding agent) to be applied to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement. Driven by legislation and
environmental forces the worldwide use of lead-free solder pastes is increasing.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example, convection or convection/infrared
heating in a conveyor type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling)
vary between 100 seconds and 200 seconds depending on heating method.
Typical reflow peak temperatures range from 215 °Cto270°C depending on solder paste
material. The top-surface temperature of the packages should preferably be kept:
below 225 °C (SnPb process) or below 245 °C (Pb-free process)
for all BGA, HTSSON..T and SSOP..T packages
for packages with a thickness 2.5 mm
for packages with a thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume 350 mm3 so called
thick/large packages.
below 240 °C (SnPb process) or below 260 °C (Pb-free process) for packages with a
thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume < 350 mm3 so called small/thin packages.
Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on packing, must be respected at all times.
14.3 Wave soldering
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended for surface mount devices
(SMDs) or printed-circuit boards with a high component density, as solder bridging and
non-wetting can present major problems.
To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering method was specifically
developed.
If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be observed for optimal results:
Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave.
For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):
larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis is preferred to be
parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board;

Product data sheet Rev. 05 — 28 June 2005 12 of 16
Philips Semiconductors TDA3661
Very low dropout voltage/quiescent current voltage regulator
smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis must be parallel to the
transport direction of the printed-circuit board.
The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the downstream end.
For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must be placed at a 45° angle to
the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate
solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
During placement and before soldering, the package must be fixed with a droplet of
adhesive. The adhesive can be applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the adhesive is cured.
Typical dwell time of the leads in the wave ranges from 3 seconds to 4 seconds at 250 °C
or 265 °C, depending on solder material applied, SnPb or Pb-free respectively.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal of corrosive residues in most
applications.
14.4 Manual soldering
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage
(24 V or less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact time must be
limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C.
When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in one operation within
2 seconds to 5 seconds between 270 °C and 320 °C.
14.5 Package related soldering information
[1] For more detailed information on the BGA packages refer to the
(LF)BGA Application Note
(AN01026);
order a copy from your Philips Semiconductors sales office.
[2] All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the
maximum temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or
external package cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn
effect). For details, refer to the Drypack information in the
Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit
Packages; Section: Packing Methods
.
[3] These transparent plastic packages are extremely sensitive to reflow soldering conditions and must on no
account be processed through more than one soldering cycle or subjected to infrared reflow soldering with
peak temperature exceeding 217 °C±10 °C measured in the atmosphere of the reflow oven. The package
body peak temperature must be kept as low as possible.

[4] These packages are not suitable for wave soldering. On versions with the heatsink on the bottom side, the
solder cannot penetrate between the printed-circuit board and the heatsink. On versions with the heatsink
on the top side, the solder might be deposited on the heatsink surface.
[5] If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave
direction. The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
[6] Wave soldering is suitable for LQFP, QFP and TQFP packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.8 mm; it is
definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.
[7] Wave soldering is suitable for SSOP, TSSOP, VSO and VSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger
than 0.65 mm; it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.
[8] Image sensor packages in principle should not be soldered. They are mounted in sockets or delivered
pre-mounted on flex foil. However, the image sensor package can be mounted by the client on a flex foil by
using a hot bar soldering process. The appropriate soldering profile can be provided on request.
[9] Hot bar soldering or manual soldering is suitable for PMFP packages.
